Girls Basketball = Franklin, 51 @ Milford, 47 – Final
– For the third time in six days, Franklin pulled out a win after trailing in the fourth quarter. Freshman Brielle Nicholls scored 11 of her 14 points to help the Panthers overcome a dogged Milford effort, extend their win streak to 10 games and leave them a win away from clinching at least a share of the Kelley-Rex title. It was a great start for the visitors, who jumped out to a 17-10 lead after one. Sophia Sacramone hit a pair of Franklin’s four threes in the first and scored eight points. An 8-0 run to start the second, pushed the lead up to 15. Evelena Dobecki scored half of those eight to help the Panthers make a run. Milford turned things around with a 17-5 run to get back within three by halftime. Freshman Anela Lefter got four points and Kyla Nashawaty added four more. Sacramone nailed a three to make it 30-22 but Ava Baglione answered with a three and laid the ball off to Nashawaty for a layup to close the half. The third quarter was rough for both offenses. The teams combined for just 10 points. Ava Bonney’s three-point play on an offensive rebound gave Franklin a 36-31 lead going to the fourth. Milford rallied again, going on a 7-0 run to grab its first lead on a Baglione drive. Nicholls got open in the corner for a three and scored on an offensive board from Kaylee Fernandes. A Katelyn Kearnan steal led to a Baglione layup and Nashawaty scored in the paint after a Lefter steal to make it 43-41. Tessah Rodrigues drilled a three (her only points of the night) to put Franklin in front. With the Panthers up 47-44 in the final minute, Bonney ripped the ball loose and threw it ahead for Nicholls to lay it in and give the Panthers a two-possession lead. Sacramone finished with a team-high 15 points and Bonney added nine points and seven rebounds. Liz Dumais chipped in with 11 rebounds. Baglione led all scorers with 18 points, Nashawaty finished with 12 points, and Reagan Cunningham had five points and 11 rebounds.

Boys Hockey = Franklin, 4 vs. Braintree, 6 – Final
– Franklin senior Drake McAlpine put the Panthers ahead 4-3 just before the midway point of the third period but Braintree scored back-to-back power play goals and added an insurance tally to earn a 6-4 win. After McAlpine’s goal, the Wamps tied the game on the power play less than a minute later. Braintree regained its lead with 4:18 to go with another power play goal and scored one more just 45 seconds later to secure the win. McAlpine and Rocco Lampasona each had a goal and an assist, Cooper Taccini and Collin Canavan each scored once, Thomas Quinn registered two assists, and Quinn Taccini chipped in with one helper for the Panthers.
